Springboks Beat All Blacks


In a very physical game the Springboks beat the All Blacks 28-19 in Bloemfontein which puts them top of the Tri-Nations table.

After leading 14-3 at halftime, the Springboks went on to claim their first win against the All Blacks in Bloemfontein.

The Boks controlled most of the game in all areas, and had it not been some poor goal kicking by Ruan Pienaar, who missed 5 kicks, the score could’ve been much bigger.

Eight minutes from the end Jaque Fourie scored in the corner to become the Springbok’s highest try scorer for a Centre.

Heinrich Brussow won the Man of the Match on his home ground.

The Springboks have not won a Tri-Nations Series sine 2004, and many believe this is the year that they will reclaim the Title.

  1. GOOOOOOOOOOOO BOKKE !!!!!!!!!!!!

    seriously, this, I feel was the best rugby they have played in the last year - and it's really exciting to see!!! nothing flashy, just good honest hard rugby - the style of rugby SA has always been good at!!!! Maybe Pieter devilliers wll get his head out of the clouds...
    Heindrich Brussow - what a find, what a player - what happens to Schalk Burger when he gets back????
    And an unsung hero - Bismark du plessis!!!! just need to get rid of his replacement - chilliboy - he needs to be kept as far away from SA rugby as possible!!!!!
